being pro-business is pro-people.

It's amazing the number of people that don't understand this concept.

A wise man named Winston Churchill said it best:

"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.

I don't know why people don't get this. We have a union shop and the union spent untold millions on Gore's behalf. Their mantra was that Bush was pro business and that would put them out of work. Huh?

If I can cut through less BS faster I can concentrate on bidding and getting jobs. The more jobs I can aquire, the more union people I need. The more silly rules they come up with, the more hoops I have to jump through, the less time I can spend doing what needs to be done namely getting work to keep everyone employed.

Why is this so difficult to understand?
